Why do Ji’an people like to go to Ganzhou?

Because Ganzhou is more developed than Ji'an. The three counties of Taiwansui in the south of Ji'an area have the traditional habit of moving closer to Ganzhou. I know that before liberation, there were many Taihe people working as apprentices and doing business in Ganzhou. Later, when I took the exams, the schools tended to be closer to Ganzhou. Ganzhou had more educational resources than Ji'an and was more selective.

Ganzhou’s development prospects

Ganzhou is more than 350 kilometers away from all first-level large cities. But Ganzhou is also a transportation node city in the north-south and east-west directions, 330 kilometers away from the coastline. All conditions give Ganzhou the foundation to become a first-class city. This is also the biggest difference between Ganzhou and cities such as Luoyang, Xiangyang, Wuhu, Jiujiang, Zunyi, Huizhou, Fuyang, and Yulin.

If an inland city is too far from the coastline, even if it is at a transportation node, it will not be able to undertake sufficient and sustained industrial transfers from developed areas, and will not have a relatively strong demand for foreign trade. Some cities only serve as east-west or north-south nodes and cannot support the expansion of the urban framework in all directions.

Those medium-sized cities that are relatively close to the first-level large cities and are currently developing relatively well, because of the siphoning ability of the large cities themselves, small and medium-sized cities do not have enough population and administrative status to expand their own. City size.

Objectively speaking, there are very few small regional cities that can truly move towards big cities in the future and whose comprehensive conditions meet the positioning of big cities in the future. Ganzhou is one of the few, perhaps even the last and only, small and medium-sized cities that can successfully move into big cities.
